Show Notes
Author Jennifer Homans first made her mark ten years ago with the release of 'Apollo's Angels', an exhaustive work tracing ballet's roots from the Renaissance to modern times. Now she's back with a new release, 'Mr. B: George Balanchine's 20th Century', following the choreographer's life and work in one of the most comprehensive ways ever committed to the page. Homans sits down to with the hosts of the podcast 'Conversations On Dance' to talk about the research she did over the course of a decade of writing, what her most surprising finds were, and what her ultimate takeaways were from getting to know the life of one of the 20th century's artistic greats in a way few writers ever have.
This episode was recorded live on Saturday July 29th, 2023 at the Gerald R Ford Amphitheater. Conversations on Dance at the Vail Dance Festival is generously underwritten by the Town of Vail.
